Summary:
The elementary schools located in the 43054 zip code, New Albany-Plain Local district, are exceptional performers, with both New Albany Primary School and New Albany Early Learning Center ranking among the top elementary schools in Ohio.
New Albany Primary School has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the top 15% of Ohio elementary schools. Both schools demonstrate impressive academic outcomes, with 3rd-grade proficiency rates significantly exceeding state averages in math and English language arts. The schools serve relatively affluent student populations, with low rates of free/reduced-price lunch eligibility, suggesting that socioeconomic factors may contribute to their strong performance.
While the student populations at both schools are predominantly White, they also have significant representation from other racial and ethnic groups, particularly Asian students. This diversity may enrich the educational experience for students. However, the higher chronic absenteeism rate at New Albany Early Learning Center compared to New Albany Primary School is an area that the district may want to investigate and address, as consistent attendance is crucial for academic success. Additionally, the difference in per-student spending between the two schools may warrant further exploration to understand the reasons behind this disparity.
